The TIME NXR Nude Carbon Frameset is designed for riders who appreciate the balance of a true performance road bike. Neither an aggressive race machine nor a dedicated endurance bike, the NXR delivers the riding position that most cyclists naturally gravitate towards — efficient, responsive, and comfortable over long distances.

Developed from decades of TIME engineering, the NXR takes the proven DNA of the iconic TIME Alpe d'Huez and packages it into a pure road frameset built for today's rider. Whether climbing alpine passes, riding fast bunches, or enjoying long weekend adventures, the NXR delivers the unmistakable ride quality that has defined TIME for almost forty years.

Born from the Alpe d'Huez

The NXR shares its engineering heritage directly with the renowned TIME Alpe d'Huez.

Manufactured in Europe using the same production methods, premium carbon materials, and proprietary construction techniques, the NXR delivers a level of ride quality rarely found in its class.

Designed to respond instantly to rider input, it combines confident handling, efficient power transfer, and refined comfort into a beautifully balanced road frameset. It's equally at home climbing mountain roads, attacking fast bunch rides, or spending long days exploring quiet backroads.

Braided Carbon Structure + Dyneema®

Every TIME NXR frameset is manufactured using TIME's proprietary Braided Carbon Structure (BCS) technology.

Unlike conventional pre-preg carbon construction, TIME braids continuous carbon fibres into a three-dimensional structure before resin infusion. This unique manufacturing process creates exceptional structural consistency, strength, and ride quality that simply cannot be replicated using traditional carbon layups.

Integrated naturally into this process is Dyneema®, one of the world's strongest fibres. By weaving Dyneema® directly into the frame structure, TIME improves vibration damping, impact resistance, and long-distance comfort without compromising stiffness or responsiveness.

The result is a carbon road frameset that feels smooth, composed, and remarkably refined across every type of road surface.

Modern Road Design

The NXR is engineered around the demands of modern performance road cycling.

With clearance for tyres up to 32 mm, the frameset delivers improved grip, comfort, and confidence while maintaining the lively handling expected from a premium road bike.

Additional features include:

Designed to evolve with modern component standards, the NXR is ready for today's premium builds and tomorrow's drivetrain innovations.

European Craftsmanship

Every TIME NXR frameset is manufactured in Europe by skilled craftsmen using the same techniques that have defined TIME bicycles for nearly four decades.

Rather than concealing the construction beneath heavy paint, the Nude Carbon finish showcases the distinctive braided carbon structure beneath. The exposed weave highlights the craftsmanship behind every frame and reflects the unique manufacturing process that sets TIME apart from conventional carbon bicycle brands.

Beautiful to look at and exceptional to ride, the TIME NXR embodies TIME's philosophy that engineering, craftsmanship, and ride quality should always work together.
